Question

why is the atomic radii of the elements of 1st transition series lower than the corresding atomic radii of 2nd and 3rd transition series?

Open in App

Solution

Atomic radii of 1^st transition series is lower than the 2^nd and 3^rd series as a new principal shell is added in each row. As a result of this new shell the atomic radii increases as we go down the group.
